4:36 am
now welcome everyone to press tv's of news review program where we get in-depth in one the days top stories and now a renowned american surgeon has made shocking a renowned american surgeon has made shocking revelations about israel's genocide in gaza saying the regime's forces deliberately kill palestini children with sniper fire. all of the disasters i've seen combined, combined, 40 mission trips, 30 years, ground zero, earthquakes. "all of that combined doesn't equal the level of carnage that i saw against civilians in just my first week in gaza, almost exclusively children, i've never seen that before, never seen that. i've seen more
4:37 am
incinerated children than i've ever seen in my entire life combined. i've seen more shredded children in just the first week, shredded, shredded, what do you mean, missing?" 30 of gaza's civilian victims were children, and he has evidence of systematic targeting of children and war crimes committed against them. he volunteered in gaza from late april to mid may this year. promotter said he had treated children with sniper bullet wounds, some of whom were shot twice. a doctor added that he has seen bodies torn apart or crushed under buildings in addition to large number of children who were burned in an unprecedented fashion. form. said never in his life had he seen children mutilated and injured as he is seen in gaza. he said the situation in gaza reflects the intensity of targeted violence against innocent children, describing it as intolerable crime against humanity. joining
4:38 am
us now for the program is uh zafar bengesh director at the institute of contemporary islamic thought joining us out of toronto and paul luruti, co-founder of the free palestine movement, joining us from berkeley, california, gentlemen, i like to welcome you both to the program, i guess we'll start there in uh canada with you - zafar bengesh, welcome to the program sir, hope you're having a a fun time out there in uh canada, your thoughts about this uh doctor's uh proclamations, and you know what, it's not just this doctor, there have been a number of doctors that have come forward. in the re in recent months talking about heroic experiences and accounts of crimes against particularly the children population of gaza. well, it's obvious that israel is deliberately targeting palestinian children, because it wants to wipe out not only the
4:39 am
present generation, but the future generation the palestinians living in gaza. figures are absolutely horrendous over the last nine months. "at least 18,00 palestinians have been killed, 18 thousand palestinian children, and there is, there are reports that another 21 th00 palestinian children are missing, believe to be buried underneath the debris of collapsed buildings that israel has bombed, so the the scale of destruction and the scale of the casualties, murders, etc. inflicted on the palestinian children is absolutely horrendous." you need to keep in mind that the british medical journal lancet a few couple of weeks ago published a report, they said that, although the the casualty figures that have been quoted are as you mentioned 39,100 or exceeded that, lanset figures are something like 18600, so you can
4:40 am
see the scale of death and destruction that the zionists have inflicted upon the palestinian people, in particular children and especially their israeli snipers are shooting palestinian children directly, that again constitutes a war crime. thank you, mr. bengash, and paul, welcome to the program, paul. um, paul, mean all you have to do is google it, this is one doctor's account, but um, mean you just mentioned doctors coming back from gaza and just and and put search out and american doctor stuck in gaza describes the dire state of um experiences there including crimes against children, returning doctors from gaza provide herowing first-hand accounts. doctor says israel is systematically targeting gaza hospital, that's nbc news, the other one was abc australia and... pbs news hour, your thoughts on systemic targeting of children in gaza,
4:41 am
how in israel is doing this in broad daylight and getting away with it, paul? well, i remember a report by chris hedges who, it was published in harper's magazine in, i think it was october 2001 or 2002, it was called gaza diary, and he was... was um he was with israeli troops and they were calling out the children in gaza and saying your your mother is a whore and various things like that to get the children to come out and throw stones and when they did they would shoot them for sport and chris said that this was the first time that he had ever in all his experience as a war correspondent ever seen such killing, but so so you know, we're talking
4:42 am
about two decades ago, more than two decades ago, and this has been ongoing since then, it's intensified now, but uh, it's uh, this is, this is not surprising for the israeli military, this is what they are taught. to do, they this is, we can expect more that as long as the world tolerates this, and especially if we have the united states providing them with the means to commit these horrendous, horrible crimes, then it's going to go on, yeah, it is going to go on, mr. bengesh, nowhere in the world can you have systematic targeting of children in a conflict? like this and not have million red flags go up in western capitals and not be
4:43 am
the target of sanctions and condemnation and action, not just condemnations but literal action. why is the regime intel aviv an exception when it comes to this particular kind of atrocity? well we need to keep in mind that unfortunately the western government's concern about other people's lives. is very selective, if let's say there is a government that the west opposes, then any wrong doing that is committed by that particular government, there would be immediate condemnation, all kinds of protests and sanctions and even targeting. we can look at the example of ukraine for instance, you know, because russia is involved and america was involved, in ukraine bringing about a coup back in february of 2014 and anytime
4:44 am
there is any attack from the russian side on ukraine, if few civilians are killed, there is lot of noise, lot of protest and condemmination of russia, whereas when we see in the case of zionist israel, it has murdered more than 18000 palestinian children, and yet there is in fact justification. for israeli crimes, mean it is absolutely outrageous that a war criminal like netanyahu would not only be invited to the united states, that he would be given the platform at the us congress and in fact you know standing ovations during his hour nonsensical allegations that he was making, he was telling lies, i mean even western newspapers have documented the lies that netanyahu was telling, the guardian for instance, reporting on what has happened, even here in canada, global news actually
4:45 am
identified, you know how netanyahu is telling lies about, he even claimed that when he went to rafa he found that there was nobody had been killed there, only one person incidentally, you know, this was by some kind of you know mistaken fire, so these are the blatant lies was telling there, and he was being applauded by the by the... members of congress, but one thing i think is important is that this time, and this is the fourth time that netanyahu was addressing the us congress, but this time there were at least 60 us law makers. that did not attend his speech, some of them who did did not applaud him, others like rashida taleb, the palestinian american was actually holding a sign there, condemning netanyahu as a war criminal and guilty of genocide etc. and there were literally thousands of people outside capital hill protesting natanyahu's
4:46 am
visit and demanding that he should be arrested, so we see that gradually the tide is turning because the world is not ' oblivious of what israel is has done and is doing and so in that sense i think there is some movement, but unfortunately we cannot expect the western governments or or the united states to do anything about it, because they are all both of them are militaristic states, they drive on wars because you know they they want to benefit the war, war weapons manufacturers and so on, so war is racket that these people are. indulging in, i'm glad that you mentioned front of congress and said there's been netanyahu his trip, because i was going to bring me to my ultimate question that i want to put to paul, netanyahu stood there in practically no civilian casualties in the southern city of raffa as a result of this couple month long uh offensive now by the occupation of forces they're in rafa paul,
4:47 am
cnn site has fact checked of this exact thing saying with that that he said that there's been practically none with the exception. of a single incident where shrapno from bomb hit a hamos weapons depot and unintentionally killed a few people. now that's this incident according to cnn's website says netanyahu reference occurred in may and killed at least 45 people a camp, you both of you gentlemen very well know this incident, it was all over the news and the the the images were horrid for displaced palestinians injured more than 200 others after fire broke out at that camp. following the strike, most of them women and children, and then in the same week at least 29 palestinians were killed in two separate israely attacks on displacement camps in rafa uh, and that's according to palestinian and united nations officials, as the cnn has seen firsthand videos shot by strengers and raffa and spoken to several health officials that over 70% of the casualties in ralpha so far
4:48 am
have been in fact women and children. paul, what has this man or his occupation? forces or his cabinet done in their actions in the last nine months in in gaza, that warrants sanding ovation in front of us congress, paul. it's a slip of the tongue. netanyahu meant to say, we have killed only civilians in gaza, because they've they've hardly touched the uh, the the fighters, they're afraid to approach the fighters, um, they... the uh they're afraid of losing their own soldiers, so they they have to kill somebody, so so it's much easier to kill civilians and lots of civilians, so this is an explanation, i don't know, i maybe it's not a very good explanation, but uh, but this this is what he's doing, and and everybody in in
4:49 am
washington knows it, having the criminal in, the the house of criminals known as congress uh where all of these people are corrupt and they they are manipulated by the the zionist lobby, mean it seems very appropriate to me uh so i i don't know it's it's it should be a good lesson for the the american people if they can learn it all right gentlemen time has gotten the better song thank you both for joining us on the program here, zafar ben gesh, director at the institute of contemporary islamic thought, joining us out of toronto canada and paul lurody, co-founder the free palestine movement, joining us from berkeley, california, and viewers, this brings us to the end of the segment of your press tv news review program, thank you for joining us and bye-bye for now. and welcome
